I have one of these coming in next week! Love the light blue.
I love the 1616 but as soon as I saw this, there were a number of different details that appealed to me even more. The silver rimmed hands and hour markers just catch my eye every time I look at it and with the steel case, it has more of a 'grey feel' as opposed the black and dark blue of the 1616. I'm glad I didn't have to pick just one.
But I'd definitely recommend to anyone considering it
